DCS Over ISDN-PRI D-channel

Enhances DCS by allowing access to the public network for DCS connections between DCS switch nodes. With this feature (also known as DCS+), DCS features are no longer restricted to private facilities. The ISDN-PRI B-channel is used for voice communications, and the ISDN-PRI D-channel is used to transport DCS control information.

QSIG

QSIG provides compliance to the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) ISDN-PRI private-networking specifications. QSIG is defined by ISO as the worldwide standard for private networks. QSIG features are supported on BRI trunks.

QSIG is the generic name for a family of signaling protocols. The Q-reference point or interface is the logical point where signaling is passed between 2 peer entities in a private network. QSIG signaling can provide feature transparency in a single-vendor or multi-vendor environment.

QSIG provides call-related Supplementary Services. These are services that go beyond voice or data connectivity and number transport and display. Examples of Supplementary Services include Name Identification, Call Forwarding (Diversion), and Call Transfer.

Call Completion

Call Completion utilizes the QSIG Platform enhancement Call Independent Signaling Connections and is functionally equivalent to the Distributed Communications System (DCS) feature: AutoCallback.

Call Independent Signaling Connections (CISC)

Call Independent Signaling Connections (CISC) are used to pass QSIG Supplementary Service information that is independent of an active call between two QSIG compliant nodes. Implementation is based on the ISO standard for CISC. It is possible to determine the status of a QSIG TSC by using the "status Signaling group" command on the SAT.
